Gottman Method
Merritt Posten Benz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
I am drawn to raw unfiltered courage. Going to therapy a brave choice and it takes tenacity and grit to feel differently and make changes in our lives. When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we become the author who writes the brave new ending. Together we will examine the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that are holding you back identify the new choices and practices that will move you toward more authentic and wholehearted living. Rarely is that decision a whim or an impulse, and most likely you've been thinking about this for a while. Now here you are; being curious and maybe nervous and scared at the same time. In my opinion - that is bravery and brave things are rarely comfortable, but always worth trying.
Whether you are looking to make a shift in your relationships, provide help and guidance for your children, or you have reached a point in your own life where you no longer want to "figure it out alone"- you have come to a good place to get moving. It can get better.
We all struggle at times - with anxiety, depression, and stress - along with the circumstances in our lives that contribute to these feelings. The "feelings" themselves are never wrong. Where we get into trouble (and can feel stuck in them) is when we can't make sense of it all and isolation creeps in. You're not in this alone.

Gottman Method
Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
Are you looking for a therapist who is engaging, warm, understanding, experienced and very knowledgeable? If so, I'm your therapist. I have helped others like you improve their relationships, overcome anxiety, depression and anger. Even if you have lost hope, together we can build self-confidence, strengthen resilience, and find motivation to overcome the obstacles. Whether you come for individual, or for couples therapy, my clients are often surprised what can be overcome and how much better things can be.
Most people spend weeks or even months contemplating getting professional help. During that time, most continue to do what hasn't worked and things can deteriorate fast. When you contact me today, you are opening the door to relieving distressful symptoms and living a better life.

Gottman Method
Tess Carroll-Keeley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Welcome. For many, taking the first step to initiate therapy is one that can be overwhelming and fraught with anxiety. My aim is to make my clients feel safe, seen, and supported. We will do this by developing a relationship between the two of us that allows you to feel first understood, and with time, challenged, as I work to better understand your patterns and explore what might be holding you back. My clients describe me as warm, compassionate, and curious.

Gottman Method
MN Couples & Family Therapy
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
I believe people have the inherent ability to connect to their best selves if given good tools, opportunities & have the motivation to do the work. I believe it's important to provide as many tools as possible for clients to use on their own. I am active & direct in therapy while also providing empathy & support. I love working with couples & families because the ripple effect of creating positive, healthy relationships is huge & can extend for generations.
